Change description

The goal of this PR is to add time-night to encounter 56524, making it match the other two Golbat slots on this route. Golbat then has a 15% encounter chance at night, and does not appear during the morning or day.

Closes #1139.

Testing

Built the local database before and after the change and checked both Golbat's encounter endpoint and the Route 42 location-area endpoint.

During testing, I confirmed that all three Golbat slots now require time-night, with chances totaling 15%. Route 42's grass encounter chances now total 100% in the morning, day, and night. The API responses are otherwise the same.

All 69 tests passed, along with pre-commit, lint, formatting, and type checks.

AI coding assistance disclosure

I used AI assistance from Codex (GPT-6.1 Sol, high reasoning effort) to investigate the issue, compare PokeAPI's CSV records with Crystal's disassembled encounter table, and apply the fix. The decisions and PR text are my own.
